lower control arms

[abrahamk]

Errol et al., The plan for the front suspension of my Stanza was to use Bluebird struts and brakes and 200b transverse arms which are significantly longer than the stock Stanza arms, i.e give -ve camber. I have discovered that the inner part of the transverse arms and bushes are different widths, the Stanza ones are thicker than the 200b items. I could use shims to pack the space between the bush and the crossmember, probably just thin washers or something. This would give 'adjustable castor', i.e if stock castor setting was with 5 shims in front and 5 behind, then you could increase castor by having (say) 2 shims in front and  8 behind, etc... I would, of course, tighten the bolts up to spec. and add a locknut. BUT is it SAFE?? I remember the pictures of that Datto 1600 racer that tore an arm out....   As an alternative plan I have heard of Datrally adjustable lower control arms - I think there is a pair for sale in the Ozdat classifieds, what are they and would they fit a Stanza? Any other suggestions?
